i wonder: if someone were to try and build a machine comparable with 8/16-bit home computers of the past, but with modern parts (microcontrollers/fpgas/whatever) and modern peripherals (monitors, keyboards, mice, storage media), how possible would that be?

Must not buy, just not buy...
A bit of youth trauma here, I had a TI99/4a and was so jealous of the apple ii and c64 people...

@pvaneynd aww *offers lots of hugs and understanding, even though i personally haven't owned any of these computers either*

@pvaneynd also, wow, that "ultimate-64" sounds awesome! ^_^
